Fantasy The Cofee Pot Café (closed)

[Dolches]

Zachary put the Blue wire with Green stripes on the stage and went outside, Rufus following him. He saw the horse floating around, and laughed. It was a little funny watching a horse floating around in the air. "Rufus, how about a magical EMP?" He said, and Rufus started overclocking.

The Missing Stallion
"He is Prince Green Leaf of the Green Leaf Woods." said Madame. "But he is not acting himself. . ."


Somewhere behind them, one of the twins spurted out his drink, laughing. "So he's Green Leaf from Green Leaf?" sniggered Evan.


"It's like that werewolf, Moon-Moon." snickered Ethan.


Madame gave them a pointed look that made the two go back to work, still stifling their laughs.


Just then, one of the prince's warlock companions entered the café looking around with a worried expression.


"Excuse me," she asked Anderson, "have you seen his highness anywhere? Someone has placed our friend Snowfire under some sort of spell!"


Outside the café there was a floating white horse tumbling in the air in place. One of the elf's companions was holding on to one end of a rope tied around Snowfire's hoofs like a balloon whick kept him from floating off. The horse looked glum and embarrassed.


@billthesomething

"Yes i have" Anderson pointed towards the Prince who was having his hair styled into a Afro with a bang covering his left eye "I believe he's the cat whose having his hair done" Anderson walked over to the floating horse "And what's with you pal?"

 

[Zer0]

"Er, magical EMP?" asked the warlock girl holding the rope attached to the horse. "Like-like a bomb?"

The floating horse looked at Anderson and just shook his head.


"Something is wrong with him." said the companion who entered the café. She had led the metal man and Madame outside and the two were examining the horse. "He cannot speak and cannot walk. So we made him float all the way here."

SMACK


"You did what?!" yelled one of the elf's companion's shrilly from the garden.


She stomped outside dragging the elven prince behind her, who was holding his steaming cheek which had a red slap mark on it.


"Yeah, yeah, I'm Snowfire," said the prince in a monotonous voice to them all. "I went to Madam Mystique's shop, asked to be turned into a man, and somehow I switched bodies with Greeny."


The white horse flared its nostrils angrily and tried to 'swim' towards him brandishing furious hooves, neighing madly.

 

[Dolches]

"First of all, normal EMP shuts off electricity, but magical EMP cancels magic." Zachary said as Rufus cast the spell and disabled magic for a second, enough to let the horse fall to the ground, but stop before it hit the ground.

"Come on son, we can't really help if you don't say anything" Anderson might not be a detective but something about this reeked of Madam's magic. "What did you say the horses's name was?" "Snowfire" The girl answered "Thanks that's all i need" Anderson walked over to the Prince. Anderson tapped the prince on the shoulder "Snowfire? I think it's about time you let you're caretaker have his body back"

"Wait, stop!" cried the warlock, but too late, the prince in the horse's body fell on the ground.


The horse gave an angry snort at Zachary. It tried to get up, but couldn't.


"Are you alright, Green?" asked the warlock immediately. "He doesn't know how to walk or stand in Snowfire's body." she explained to Zachary. The horse neighed angrily and tried to bite Snowfire in the prince's body who immediately scrambled out of the way.


"Yeah, you can have your body back!" said the prince. "Sheesh, it's not like your hair's not going to grow again . . ."


The horse neighed at him angrily.


The warlock cast the spell to make the horse and the prince float again. "We're going to Madam Mystique's shop." the warlock told Anderson and Madame. "We are so sorry for causing a ruckus."

Guest "Warlord" Yong Wong Pug Warrior


The canine samurai tried to ignore the patrons who insisted on gushing about how cute and adorable, were it not for his code. Then he would have decapitated each and every single one of them, Yong let out a sigh "sometimes I loathe that code" he wandered to stool and climbed onto it, when he managed to climb onto it finally, he pointed at the bartender "You There Barkeeper I demand Sake!" Yong slammed his tiny fist into the counter. @Garnet

 

[SecretRock]

"Thank you." Lilura told Owen, pouring two glasses and taking them to Quynn and the girl he was chatting up. She placed the two glasses on the table, flashed the two a smile, and walked back to the bar. She caught herself a little as she saw a small pug demanding a drink, or she thought it was a pug though it may have been any number of creatures. All she could be sure about was that it definitely wanted alcohol. She stopped next to Owen and the gunslinger.


"Sorry to interrupt," She started, looking between the two. "But I heard you were looking for someone, I might be able to help, if you describe the person."


@Zer0 @Farathorn

 

[Zer0]

"His name's, Mr. Vipen Preed," said the gunslinger, showing Lilura the newspaper photo of the rich merchant with an impressive beard. "He's got a mansion near Alchemist Alley. I've tried asking for an audience, but I was shooed away.


"I went to his shipping company, but I was rejected there too. I've been trying to find Mr. Preed himself, but I never saw him enter or leave any of those two places. I'm thinking he's either staying in some hotel, or he's left and I missed my chance.

Guest "Warlord" Yong Wong Pug Warrior


"Barkeeper! I DEMAND SAKE!" The Pug shouted getting quite irritated "I WILL NOT BE IGNo" A random intoxicated patron deiced to make her presence known "Oh look how cute you a" She was silenced with a kick from Yong that sent her to the floor, she tried to look but she found a blade pressed to her throat, Yong stood on her chest as held his blade and stared into her eyes. She could the fiery rage that burned in his eyes as he stared into her own


"LISTEN TO ME PEASANT! I AM THE GREAT WARLORD YONG WONG THE SLAYER OF THE EMPEROR'S ARMY! AND I REFUSE TO BE HUMILIATED, BELITTLED OR IGNORED ANY FURTHER!" He pressed the blade closer to her neck "DO YOU UNDERSTAND!" She nodded weakly "I SAID DO YOU UNDERSTAND!!!" he shouted once again clearly not satisfied. She nodded her head more rapidly "Good" Yong Wong nodded and stepped off her then sheath his sword. The Patron ran off so fast that she left a dust cloud shaped like her. Yong climbed onto the stool once again "BARKEEPER WHERE IS MY SAKE!?!"

 

[SecretRock]

Lilura took the newspaper clipping and looked at the photo, and she thought back to her time in the city. She handed the paper back and looked up and down the man.


"I did see him in town two days ago." She told the gunslinger. "He was going into Harridan Tailors. That's all I know. Sorry, It's not much use is it?" She offered a small smile as another apology.

[Garnet]

Freya hadn't noticed the piling the first time he had demanded sake but now he was ranting about humiliating at a very high volume and demanded he be served sake once again. She leaned on the counter to look at the pug who was know sitting a stool.


"O-of course. Sorry about the delay, sir." She said quickly. Opening a shelf on the far right, she took out a bottle of sake and poured it into a small cup. She slid the drink across the counter to the pug, but was weary of whether he could reach it.

Host Quynn Zelphar


Quynn smiled at the twins' antics - they were quite the charmers, if you were into that sort of thing. And the girls at the next table were definitely into that. Lysle was a bit over the top for Quynn's tastes, but the ladies liked his looks, and in their line of business, that was all that mattered. Hazel, though, was a little harder to read. Was she just aloof? Or was she upset? Human emotions can be so complex...


"The night seems to be going well," Quynn said in response to Lysle's question. "There's quite a crowd. We could sure use all hands on deck tonight."


But there wasn't much time for conversation, as the night's events for the elf prince came to their climax. Apparently he hadn't been choking on food at all, but had just experienced an interchanging of bodies. That explains his confusion earlier.


Quynn kept all comments to himself, feeling the warlocks had it under control. He was no expert in soul-exchanges anyhow. He instead make himself useful at the bar, where a strange creature was making a ruckus.


"Everything okay here?" Quynn asked casually, throwing a worried glance at the female bartender, another employee he didn't know the name of. I really should introduce myself more... While he didn't know her name, he'd gladly show this roudy guest the door if the need arose.


@Zer0 @Garnet @billthesomething

 

[Zer0]

"S' fine." the gunslinger told Lilura, pocketing the photo. "Tailors, huh? Maybe I need to go to the tailors too, maybe I keep getting rejected 'cause of how I look." The gunslinger was unshaven, and wore shabby, travel-worn western clothes. His boots were old and dusty, his mechanical arm lacked polish, and his hat had some bullet holes.

Optional Quest: Making the Parade Float
​

The pleasant summer days passed by and soon it was time for the summer parade. A week before the event, a travelling carnival had arrived in the city, and the café employees had begun making their parade float, which had a Mad Hatter Tea Party theme (think, Alice in Wonderland) and a giant coffee pot that had a rising stage where performers would appear.


The café was closed at six and the rest of the evenings were used making props, costumes for the performers, and practicing their parts. They were planning to throw chocolate gold coins at the crowd as they pass, so Gen-gen, Nessy and all the assistant chefs were working late into the night making mounds and mounds of delicious chocolate treasure.


Lysle could be heard practicing the piano, while Hazel practiced a flying dance with some large colorful exotic birds. The twins Ethan and Evan, helped with the float, while Roy, Elena, and Michael helped with props and costumes. And the one managing them all was Soma.

[Garnet]

Sighing, Freya decided to calm her nerves by drinking a cup of warm tea. She received news that the elvish prince had been swapped with his horse and the man she was talking to wasn't him at all. Well that explains a lot. She thought. It was rather daunting to her how much could happen in the first few hours of her new job, but she liked to think of the whole ordeal as one big adventure. Then again, this is the grand opening and it's bound to attract plenty of wonderfully strange people. She smiled, this was sure to be one hell of a job. The dark haired Host approaching the bar took her out of her thoughts.


"Everything is fine thank you. I was just serving this gentleman his drink." She said cheerfully, gesturing towards the angry looking pug warrior. "I'm Freya by the way." She added, extending her arm.


@Musical Dragon

 

[Zer0]

"Hello again, Freya!" came a familiar voice suddenly from behind. Roy, the bartender who had interviewed Freya and all the other new bartenders before they started the job, went behind the bar and approached the two. He tipped his cowboy hat at Quynn.


"Is it just me, or does that customer make you want to touch his paw pads?" he said quietly, sneaking a glance at the warlord pug.

@billthesomething

Yong grinned at his desired drink but when went to grab it, his tiny arms couldn't reach and his grin turned into a frown "Barkeeper I require assistance"

 

[Garnet]

"Pfft, don't be rude." Freya told Roy, trying to keep a straight face but failing miserably. She watched as the pug attempted to hold the cup, flailing his tiny arms around. She grinned and bit her lip to hold in a giggle. Leaning over the counter, she put the cup in between his paws.


"There you go, sir." She said, still grinning widely.


@billthesomething @Zer0

 

[Zer0]

"But they look so soft . . ." growled Roy quietly in his corner. "Know what, I'm going to do it." he whispered to Quyyn. He called over the twins and whispered something in their ears. Their faces cracked into two identical mischievous grins.

Making the Parade Float


It was quarter to six when Soma, the waiter, and Avalin, the assassin bartender, arrived in the market where a legendary battle between housewives, restaurant errand-boys, girlfriends, and butlers was in full throttle. There was a sale on premium discounted meat and vegetables and there was only ten minutes left before they close shop.


"Go, Avalin!" said Soma throwing her his wallet. "Don't underestimate housewives!"


He cast his spell, 'Mind Link', on her so that they can telepathically communicate. His summoned ethereal owls were already flying over the battlefield, searching for the best meat at the cheapest price.


@LaDyGrEy

 

[Garnet]

Freya pursed her lips. A mischievous grin played on the faces of Roy and the twins. This was not good.


"Weren't you here when he pointed his sword at the poor girl who said he was cute. I mean, he's tiny but I'm willing to bet he's dangerous." She said crossing her arms. But despite her best efforts, it was unlikely she would change their minds.


@billthesomething @Zer0

 

[LaDyGrEy]

Avalin turned and caught the wallet, raising her brows and growling. "So be it, guide me," Entering the crowd with a push she felt the surge of the housewives and the ringing of their screams and shouts throughout her body. "And 1, 2, 3," she muttered with a roll of her eyes as she pushed forward and pulled out her dagger. Proceeding to tear the women's skirts, cutting baskets open and occasionally removing hair too close to the skin as she made her way forwards, slowly...very slowly.


The assassin sighed, pausing, her eyes glowed a deep purple and she lifted her arm and her fingers opened, a puppet formed in the shadows standing at 6 feet. It roared. Avalin tilted her head sideways with a small dark chuckle and thought her words, knowing full well Soma was prepared.


And where are we heading? She asked coldly as she watched women run from the shadow, cover themselves up and attempt to pick up thier fallen goods. Anytime now...
